Recipe: Central Market's Shrimp Salad

Friday, May 14, 2010

There are few things in this world as fabulous as Central Market's Shrimp Salad. seriously. I crave it constantly... but at $18 a pound (yikes!) I usually reserve it for special occasions or celebrations. I've scoured the Internet for the recipe to no avail... but after a little experimenting and mixing together different parts of recipes, I think I've created a perfect recreation. Um... so perfect that I made it twice this week (i know... i'm weak).

Shrimp Salad

1 lb Shrimp, cooked & chopped into large pieces

1/2 C Mayonaise

1/4 C White Onion, diced

3/4 C Celery, diced

1.5 T White Wine Viegar

1.5 T Fresh Dill, minced

1 t Taragon (I used dried)

1/4 t Salt

1/4 t Dijon Mustard

1/4 t Fresh Ground Pepper

Whisk together salt, vinegar, mayo, mustard, pepper and dill. Combine with shrimp. Then add onion and celery. Cover and place in the fridge for at least 1 hour. If you let it sit overnight, it gets even better.

Thank you, it's nice to come across such a simple recipe. I have moved to live on a tropical island that has a very limited supply of ingredients popular in the US and Europe. However I think that is one recipe where we can pick up all the ingredients, except maybe the dill.
